People like my mother who pray several times a day do not get ADHD because prayer serves to reinforce intention. This is purely anecdotal evidence, of course, but something about repeatedly training attention to cultivate specific conative states is giving prayers an edge. https://t.co/7jOWx71txb

@SurenVynn ADHD has a neurological component that can be somewhat ameliorated with focused attention but not totally cured/transcended

@VividVoid_ I can't really speak to the neurology of ADHD with much depth, but I take the view that the neurological component is shaped by behaviour rather than the other way around.

@SurenVynn They're coconstructed! But some of that construction only happens during developmental years
